lives were like in the past.

boys, while boys learn to play with balls before girls. |

Two magazines recently listed The Best Cities to Live in. Here is one of them.
HONG KONG, CHINA.
Why live in Hong Kong? Here are two reasons.
The city: This lively city - once a small fishing village - is today an international business centre. It is
an interesting mix of East and West, old and new. Modern skycrapers are next to small temples. Popular
nightclubs are close to traditional teahouses. Busy crowds fill the strees at all hours of the day. But outside
the city, there are parks for walking and relaxing.
The food: Hong Kong is famous for its wonderful native dishes (try the dim sum). There"s also food
from Eruope, North America, and other parts of Asia.
Minuses: This small city has a large population. How many people live in Hong Kong? Almost seven
million! That"s why housing is often very expensive. Traffic and air pollution are also a problem. |
1. What used Hong Kong to be?
__________________________________________________
2. What East and old things can travellers see inside the city?
__________________________________________________
3. Hong Kong food is another example to show the mix of East and West, isn"t it?

4. Why is housing very expensive in Hong Kong?

5. How are the traffic and air in Hong Kong?
